• Slightly Red or Pink Skin Colour
During or directly after a session, it is not uncommon to
note a very slightly pinkish colouration of the skin. This
pink colour is usually visible around the region of the hair
itself. However, if your skin is completely red or blistering
and burns occur, stop using the appliance immediately.
Before Use
WARNING:
Never
use flammable liquids such as alcohol (including
fragrances, disinfectants or other alcoholic substances) or
acetone to clean the skin before using the appliance.
• Shave the skin at the location you want to use the appli-
ance. The hair must not be removed with wax or ripped
out in any kind. The shave is an important prerequisite
for the desired result.
• For best results, shave the region 3 days prior to applica-
tion or when the hair has a length of 1 to 2 mm.
• The skin should be clean, dry and free of any antiperspi-
rant or deodorant.
Performing a Skin Compatibility Test
The skin compatibility test is designed to determine how
your skin responds to the treatment with the appliance.
Furthermore it aids in adjusting the optimal power level
preference for each treatment area.
Perform a skin compatibility test on each skin area you
would like to treat 48 hours before the full treatment.
WARNING:
Always wear the safety glasses when performing a skin
compatibility test!
1. Proceed as described in chapter “Use of the Appliance”
point 1 to 4.
2. Start with the lowest intensity level.
3. Place the skin support surface onto the desired test
location on the skin.
4. Proceed as described in chapter “Use of the Appliance”
point 6 to 8.
5. Continue the test with the next higher intensity level on
another test location on the skin.
However, also note the indicated intensity level in the
table on hair colours and skin types.
• Repeat the skin compatibility test for each body region in
which you want to use the appliance.
• If you don’t experience any discomfort within 48 hours,
you may start the application with the last selected
intensity level.
